The New Orleans Saints have elected eight team captains for the 2025 season.
They are:
Offense: Brandin Cooks, Alvin Kamara and Erik McCoy.
Defense: Demario Davis, Cam Jordan and Justin Reid.
Special teams: Blake Grupe and Zach Wood.
Saints players voted on captains Monday, and the selections were announced at a team dinner later that night.
The vote of Kamara is a first in his eight-year career with the team. The star running back was named a team captain by interim head coach Darren Rizzi in Week 10 of last season, but he had never been voted a team captain by his peers.
Grupe, Cooks and Reid are also first-time selections.
McCoy, Davis, Jordan and Wood were captains in 2024. They were joined by Derek Carr, Taysom Hill, Tyrann Mathieu, J.T. Gray and Kamara (added in Week 10).
